Final Thoughts On The “Wonder Woman” Movie

Alright, it’s time to wrap this up. I didn’t talk much about the good parts of the movie so let’s get to that. Even though the movie overrated by EPIC proportions it isn’t terrible. Here’s the good stuff.

Gal Gadot – She is, of course, beautiful and also very charming. She has a smile that make you want to smile too

Chris Pine – He does a good job

“Etta Candy” – She’s pretty funny. The movie needed more of her

The lasso – Looked awesome when used

The action – There’s way too little, but most of it is pretty well done

The humor – Though better than some of the other “DCEU” movies still weak. Like the action ALL the funniest stuff are in the trailers. In fact they’re funnier in the trailers

Setting the movie in WWI – Bad decision. There’s a reasoning behind it in the movie, but still a bad decision. There has always been a connection between “Wonder Woman” and “WWII”. It’s a less interesting war. Also the technology doesn’t allow for “Wonder Woman” to have any challenge. At least until she fights Ares.

The framing device – All this does is remind you of “Batman V Superman” which was horrible. Wasted time here. Jump into the movie and let’s go. Which leads to…

Young Diana – All this does is give exposition and attempt to make you care about a character that dies. The exposition could’ve gotten laid out in a better way. Also you still don’t care about the character that dies when they do. Again wasted time.

Wasted time in general – A lot scenes are there to set up a single joke or something. The joke is never good enough for the wasted time. This is a general problem with the “DCEU”. The plot stalls for scenes that waste time. This how you get long boring movies that STILL don’t have enough action.

So again, its a C+ movie. Now that Joss Whedon is directing “Justice League” it’s possible that could be okay. Let’s hope. That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefigher Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
